For example: if I want to change the port my app listen too, do I do that with a CLI flag, a `--setting` flag, inside `metadata.json`, or an env var? If I want to up the time limit of SQL statements, is that under `metadata.json` or a setting? Where does my plugin configuration go? Normally I need to look it up in Datasette docs, and I quickly find my answer, but the number of places where ""config"" goes it overwhelming. - Flat CLI flags like `--port`, `--host`, `--cors`, etc. - `--setting`, like `default_page_size`, `sql_time_limit_ms` etc - Inside `metadata.json`, including plugin configuration Typically my Datasette deploys are extremely long shell commands, with multiple `--setting` and other CLI flags. ## Proposal: Consolidate all ""config"" into `datasette.toml` I propose that we add a new `datasette.toml` that combines ""settings"", ""metadata"", and other common CLI flags like `--port` and `--cors` into a single file. It would be similar to ""Cargo.toml"" in Rust projects, ""package.json"" in Node projects, and ""pyproject.toml"" in Python, etc. A sample of what it could look like: ```toml # ""top level"" configuration that are currently CLI flags on `datasette serve` [config] port = 8020 host = ""0.0.0.0"" cors = true # replaces multiple `--setting` flags [settings] base_url = ""/app/datasette/"" default_allow_sql = true sql_time_limit_ms = 3500 # replaces `metadata.json`. # The contents of datasette-metadata.json could be defined in this file instead, but supporting separate files is nice (since those are easy to machine-generate) [metadata] include=""./datasette-metadata.json"" # plugin-specific [plugins] [plugins.datasette-auth-github] client_id = {env = ""DATASETTE_AUTH_GITHUB_CLIENT_ID""} client_secret = {env = ""GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET""} [plugins.datasette-cluster-map] latitude_column = ""lat"" longitude_column = ""lon"" ``` ## Pros - Instead of multiple files and CLI flags, everything could be in one tidy file - Editing config in a separate file is easier than editing CLI flags, since you don't have to kill a process + edit a command every time - New users will know ""just edit my `datasette.toml` instead of needing to learn metadata + settings + CLI flags - Better dev experience for multiple environment. For example, could have `datasette -c datasette-dev.toml` for local dev environments (enables SQL, debug plugins, long timeouts, etc.), and a `datasette -c datasette-prod.toml` for ""production"" (lower timeouts, less plugins, monitoring plugins, etc.) ## Cons - Yet another config-management system. Now Datasette users will need to know about metadata, settings, CLI flags, _and_ `datasette.toml`. However with enough documentation + announcements + examples, I think we can get ahead of it. - If toml is chosen, would need to add a toml parser for Python version <3.11 - Multiple sources of config require priority. For example: Would `--setting default_allow_sql off` override the value inside `[settings]`? What about `--port`? ## Other Notes ### Toml I chose toml over json because toml supports comments. I chose toml over yaml because Python 3.11 has builtin support for it. I also find toml easier to work with since it doesn't have the odd ""gotchas"" that YAML has (""ex `3.10` resolving to `3.1`, Norway `NO` resolving to `false`, etc.). It also mimics `pyproject.toml` which is nice. Happy to change my mind about this however ### Plugin config will be difficult Plugin config is currently in `metadata.json` in two places: 1. Top level, under `""plugins.[plugin-name]""`. This fits well into `datasette.toml` as `[plugins.plugin-name]` 2. Table level, under `""databases.[db-name].tables.[table-name].plugins.[plugin-name]`. This doesn't fit that well into `datasette.toml`, unless it's nested under `[metadata]`? ### Extensions, static, one-off plugins? We could also include equivalents of `--plugins-dir`, `--static`, and `--load-extension` into `datasette.toml`, but I'd imagine there's a few security concerns there to think through. ### Explicitly list with plugins to use? I believe Datasette by default will load all install plugins on startup, but maybe `datasette.toml` can specify a list of plugins to use? For example, a dev version of `datasette.toml` can specify `datasette-pretty-traces`, but the prod version can leave it out",107914493,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/2093/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",, 1865869205,I_kwDOBm6k_c5vNueV,2157,"Proposal: Make the `_internal` database persistent, customizable, and hidden",15178711,open,0,,,3,2023-08-24T20:54:29Z,2023-08-31T02:45:56Z,,CONTRIBUTOR,,"The current `_internal` database is used by Datasette core to cache info about databases/tables/columns/foreign keys of databases in a Datasette instance. It's a temporary database created at startup, that can only be seen by the root user. See an [example `_internal` DB here](https://latest.datasette.io/_internal), after [logging in as root](https://latest.datasette.io/login-as-root). The current `_internal` database has a few rough edges: - It's part of `datasette.databases`, so many plugins have to specifically exclude `_internal` from their queries [examples here](https://github.com/search?q=datasette+hookimpl+%22_internal%22+language%3APython+-path%3Adatasette%2F&ref=opensearch&type=code) - It's only used by Datasette core and can't be used by plugins or 3rd parties - It's created from scratch at startup and stored in memory. Why is fine, the performance is great, but persistent storage would be nice. Additionally, it would be really nice if plugins could use this `_internal` database to store their own configuration, secrets, and settings. For example: - `datasette-auth-tokens` [creates a `_datasette_auth_tokens` table](https://github.com/simonw/datasette-auth-tokens/blob/main/datasette_auth_tokens/__init__.py#L15) to store auth token metadata. This could be moved into the `_internal` database to avoid writing to the gues database - `datasette-socrata` [creates a `socrata_imports`](https://github.com/simonw/datasette-socrata/blob/1409aa9b4d2fc3aff286b52e73af33b5786d56d0/datasette_socrata/__init__.py#L190-L198) table, which also can be in `_internal` - `datasette-upload-csvs` [creates a `_csv_progress_`](https://github.com/simonw/datasette-upload-csvs/blob/main/datasette_upload_csvs/__init__.py#L154) table, which can be in `_internal` - `datasette-write-ui` wants to have the ability for users to toggle whether a table appears editable, which can be either in `datasette.yaml` or on-the-fly by storing config in `_internal` In general, these are specific features that Datasette plugins would have access to if there was a central internal database they could read/write to: - **Dynamic configuration**. Changing the `datasette.yaml` file works, but can be tedious to restart the server every time. Plugins can define their own configuration table in `_internal`, and could read/write to it to store configuration based on user actions (cell menu click, API access, etc.) - **Caching**. If a plugin or Datasette Core needs to cache some expensive computation, they can store it inside `_internal` (possibly as a temporary table) instead of managing their own caching solution. - **Audit logs**. If a plugin performs some sensitive operations, they can log usage info to `_internal` for others to audit later. - **Long running process status**. Many plugins (`datasette-upload-csvs`, `datasette-litestream`, `datasette-socrata`) perform tasks that run for a really long time, and want to give continue status updates to the user. They can store this info inside` _internal` - **Safer authentication**. Passwords and authentication plugins usually store credentials/hashed secrets in configuration files or environment variables, which can be difficult to handle. Now, they can store them in `_internal` ## Proposal - We remove `_internal` from [`datasette.databases`](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/internals.html#databases) property. - We add new `datasette.get_internal_db()` method that returns the `_internal` database, for plugins to use - We add a new `--internal internal.db` flag. If provided, then the `_internal` DB will be sourced from that file, and further updates will be persisted to that file (instead of an in-memory database) - When creating internal.db, create a new `_datasette_internal` table to mark it a an ""datasette internal database"" - In `datasette serve`, we check for the existence of the `_datasette_internal` table. If it exists, we assume the user provided that file in error and raise an error. This is to limit the chance that someone accidentally publishes their internal database to the internet. We could optionally add a `--unsafe-allow-internal` flag (or database plugin) that allows someone to do this if they really want to. ## New features unlocked with this These features don't really need a standardized `_internal` table per-say (plugins could currently configure their own long-time storage features if they really wanted to), but it would make it much simpler to create these kinds of features with a persistent application database. - **`datasette-comments`** : A plugin for commenting on rows or specific values in a database. Comment contents + threads + email notification info can be stored in `_internal` - **Bookmarks**: ""Bookmarking"" an SQL query could be stored in `_internal`, or a URL link shortener - **Webhooks**: If a plugin wants to either consume a webhook or create a new one, they can store hashed credentials/API endpoints in `_internal`",107914493,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/2157/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",, 1855885427,I_kwDOBm6k_c5unpBz,2143,De-tangling Metadata before Datasette 1.0,15178711,open,0,,,24,2023-08-18T00:51:50Z,2023-08-24T18:28:27Z,,CONTRIBUTOR,,"Metadata in Datasette is a really powerful feature, but is a bit difficult to work with. It was initially a way to add ""metadata"" about your ""data"" in Datasette instances, like descriptions for databases/tables/columns, titles, source URLs, licenses, etc. But it later became the go-to spot for other Datasette features that have nothing to do with metadata, like permissions/plugins/canned queries. Specifically, I've found the following problems when working with Datasette metadata: 1. Metadata cannot be updated without re-starting the entire Datasette instance. 2. The `metadata.json`/`metadata.yaml` has become a kitchen sink of unrelated (imo) features like plugin config, authentication config, canned queries 3. The Python APIs for defining extra metadata are a bit awkward (the `datasette.metadata()` class, `get_metadata()` hook, etc.) ## Possible solutions Here's a few ideas of Datasette core changes we can make to address these problems. ### Re-vamp the Datasette Python metadata APIs The Datasette object has a single `datasette.metadata()` method that's a bit difficult to work with. There's also no Python API for inserted new metadata, so plugins have to rely on the `get_metadata()` hook. The `get_metadata()` hook can also be improved - it doesn't work with async functions yet, so you're quite limited to what you can do. (I'm a bit fuzzy on what to actually do here, but I imagine it'll be very small breaking changes to a few Python methods) ### Add an optional `datasette_metadata` table Datasette should detect and use metadata stored in a new special table called `datasette_metadata`. This would be a regular table that a user can edit on their own, and would serve as a ""live updating"" source of metadata, than can be changed while the Datasette instance is running. Not too sure what the schema would look like, but I'd imagine: ```sql CREATE TABLE datasette_metadata( level text, target any, key text, value any, primary key (level, target) ) ``` Every row in this table would map to a single metadata ""entry"". - `level` would be one of ""datasette"", ""database"", ""table"", ""column"", which is the ""level"" the entry describes. For example, `level=""table""` means it is metadata about a specific table, `level=""database""` for a specific database, or `level=""datasette""` for the entire Datasette instance. - `target` would ""point"" to the specific object the entry metadata is about, and would depend on what `level` is specific. - `level=""database""`: `target` would be the string name of the database that the metadata entry is about. ex `""fixtures""` - `level=""table""`: `target` would be a JSON array of two strings. The first element would be the database name, and the second would be the table name. ex `[""fixtures"", ""students""]` - `level=""column""`: `target` would be a JSON array of 3 strings: The database name, table name, and column name. Ex `[""fixtures"", ""students"", ""student_id""`] - `key` would be the type of metadata entry the row has, similar to the current ""keys"" that exist in `metadata.json`. Ex `""about_url""`, `""source""`, `""description""`, etc - `value` would be the text value of be metadata entry. The literal text value of a description, about_url, column_label, etc A quick sample: level | target | key | value -- | -- | -- | -- datasette | NULL | title | my datasette title... db | fixtures | source | table | [""fixtures"", ""students""] | label_column | student_name column | [""fixtures"", ""students"", ""birthdate""] | description | This `datasette_metadata` would be configured with other tools, and hopefully not manually by end users. Datasette Core could also offer a UI for editing entries in `datasette_metadata`, to update descriptions/columns on the fly. ### Re-vamp `metadata.json` and move non-metadata config to another place The motivation behind this is that it's awkward that `metadata.json` contains config about things that are not strictly metadata, including: - Plugin configuration - [Authentication/permissions](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/authentication.html#access-permissions-in-metadata) (ex the `allow` key on datasettes/databases/tables - Canned queries. might be controversial, but in my mind, canned queries are application-specific code and configuration, and don't describe the data that exists in SQLite databases. I think we should move these outside of `metadata.json` and into a different file.

It would be convenient if there were more options to use a string column (eg. filepath) as the PK, and be able to use it during upserts, but when creating a foreign key, to create an integer column which aliases rowid I made an attempt to switch to integer primary keys here but it is not going well...

This is surprising (directly contradicts the docstring) and `convert()` may quietly skip cells where the user assumed a conversion would take place. # Example Increment a column of integers by one ``` python from sqlite_utils import Database db = Database(memory=True) table = db['table'] col = 'x' table.insert_all([{col: 0}, {col:1}]) print(table.get(1)) # 0 print(table.get(2)) # 1 print() table.convert(col, lambda x: x+1) print(table.get(1)) # got 0, expected 1 ⚠⚠⚠ print(table.get(2)) # got 2, expected 2 ``` Another example might be, say, transforming cells containing empty string to `NULL`. # Discussion This was, I think, a pragmatic choice so that consumers can skip writing guard clauses for these falsey values (particularly from the CLI). But this surprising undocumented behavior can lead to incorrect data. I don't think this is a good trade-off between convenience and correctness. In the absence of this convenience users will either have to write guard clauses into their conversion expressions (or adapt the called function to do the same), so: ``` python fn(value) if value else value ``` instead of: ``` python fn(value) ``` This is more typing and sometimes I will forget, and there will be errors. (But they will be noisy errors, which is a good thing). Such a change will certainly inconvenience some existing consumers; there will be some breakage.

Subsequent invocations with different callables use the callable from the first invocation only. ## Example ```python from sqlite_utils import Database db = Database(memory=True) table = db['table'] col = 'x' table.insert_all([{col: 1}]) print(table.get(1)) table.convert(col, lambda x: x*2) print(table.get(1)) def zeroize(x): return 0 #zeroize = lambda x: 0 #zeroize.__name__ = 'zeroize' table.convert(col, zeroize) print(table.get(1)) ``` Output: ``` {'x': 1} {'x': 2} {'x': 4} ``` Expected: ``` {'x': 1} {'x': 2} {'x': 0} ``` ## Explanation This is some relevant [documentation](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/blob/1491b66dd7439dd87cd5cd4c4684f46eb3c5751b/docs/python-api.rst#registering-custom-sql-functions:~:text=By%20default%20registering%20a%20function%20with%20the%20same%20name%20and%20number%20of%20arguments%20will%20have%20no%20effect). * `Table.convert()` takes a `Callable` to perform data conversion on a column * The `Callable` is passed to `Database.register_function()` * `Database.register_function()` uses the callable's `__name__` attribute for registration * (Aside: all lambdas have a `__name__` of ``: I thought this was the problem, and it was close, but not quite) * However `convert()` first wraps the callable by local function [`convert_value()`](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/blob/fc221f9b62ed8624b1d2098e564f525c84497969/sqlite_utils/db.py#L2661) * Consequently `register_function()` sees name `convert_value` for all invocations from `convert()` * `register_function()` silently ignores registrations using the same name, retaining only the first such registration There's a mismatch between the comments and the code: https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/blob/fc221f9b62ed8624b1d2098e564f525c84497969/sqlite_utils/db.py#L404 but actually the existing function is returned/used instead (as the ""registering custom sql functions"" doc I linked above says too). Seems like this can be rectified to match the comment? ## Suggested fix I think there are four things: 1. The call to `register_function()` from `convert()`should have an explicit `name=` parameter (to continue using `convert_value()` and the progress bar). 2. For functions, this name can be the real function name. (I understand the sqlite api needs a name, and it's nice if those are recognizable names where possible). For lambdas would `'lambda-{uuid}'` or similar be acceptable? 3. `register_function()` really should throw an error on repeated attempts to register a duplicate (function, arity)-pair. 4. A test?

For example, by right-clicking on a CSV file (for which there is already a CSV table view) in the file browser, offer a *View / Run as datasette* file viewer option that will: - run the CSV file through `csvs-to-sqlite`; - launch the `datasette` server and display the `datasette` view in a JupyterLab panel. (? Create a new SQLite db for each CSV file and launch each datasette view on a new port? Or have a JupyterLab (session?) SQLite db that stores all `datasette` viewed CSVs and runs on a single port?) As a freebie, the `datasette` API would allow you to run efficient SQL queries against the file eg using using `pandas.read_sql()` queries in a notebook in the same space.

For example, the upcoming version of `sqlite-lines` will have 2 entrypoints: the default `sqlite3_lines_init` (which SQLite will automatically guess for) and `sqlite3_lines_noread_init`. The `sqlite3_lines_noread_init` version omits functions that read from the filesystem, which is necessary for security purposes when running untrusted SQL (which Datasette does). (Similar multiple entrypoints will also be added for sqlite-http). The `--load-extension` flag, however, doesn't give the option to specify a different entrypoint, so the default one is always used. ## Proposal I want there to be a new command line option of the `--load-extension` flag to specify a custom entrypoint like so: ``` datasette my.db \ --load-extension ./lines0 sqlite3_lines0_noread_init ``` Then, under the hood, this line of code: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/7af67b54b7d9bca43e948510fc62f6db2b748fa8/datasette/app.py#L562 Would look something like this: ```python conn.execute(""SELECT load_extension(?, ?)"", [extension, entrypoint]) ``` One potential problem: For backward compatibility, I'm not sure if Click allows cli flags to have variable number of options (""arity""). So I guess it could also use a `:` delimiter like `--static`: ``` datasette my.db \ --load-extension ./lines0:sqlite3_lines0_noread_init ``` Or maybe even a new flag name? ``` datasette my.db \ --load-extension-entrypoint ./lines0 sqlite3_lines0_noread_init ``` Personally I prefer the `:` option... and maybe even `--load-extension` -> `--load`?

This is based on discussions in #1356 and #1605. Before I get too far down this rabbit hole, I figure it's worth getting some feedback here (unless this should happen in `Discussions`). Here's what I'm thinking: At its most basic, it will write the results of a query to STDOUT. ```sh datasette query -d data.db 'select * from data' > results.json ``` This isn't much improvement over using [sqlite-utils](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils). To make better use of datasette and its ecosystem, run `datasette query` using a canned query defined in a `metadata.yml` file. For example, using the metadata file from [alltheplaces-datasette](https://github.com/eyeseast/alltheplaces-datasette/blob/main/metadata.yml): ```sh cd alltheplaces-datasette datasette query -d alltheplaces.db -m metadata.yml count_by_spider ``` That query would be good to get as CSV, and we can auto-discover metadata and databases in the current directory: ```sh cd alltheplaces-datasette datasette query count_by_spider -f csv ``` In this case, `count_by_spider` is a canned query defined on the `alltheplaces` database. If the same query is defined on multiple databases or its otherwise unclear which database `query` should use, pass the `-d` or `--database` option. If a query takes parameters, I can pass them in at runtime, using the `--param` or `-p` option: ```sh datasette query -d data.db -p value something 'select * from neighborhoods where some_column = :value' ``` I'm very interested in feedback on this, including whether it should be a plugin or in Datasette core.
